Reports abound that Manchester United are set to sack David Moyes as manager - but at Old Trafford on Monday many Reds fans voiced their support for the beleaguered boss.

Visiting and resident Reds were divided on whether he should stay or go, with the majority arguing he should have at least one more season to prove himself.

United have told the M.E.N that Moyes has not been sacked but they refused to comment on speculation that he could be set to go.

According to a source at Old Trafford, no announcement has yet been made to the players who are hearing the same reports as everyone else. But the source added that it is widely believed that Moyes’ time at United is coming to an end.

United’s share price on the New York Stock Exchange fell amid the speculation.

TIME TO GO:

Kevin Owen, 55, an insurance consultant and dad of one from Sale, said: “I think it’s time to go. He should never had had a six year contract. He was shoed into the job by Sir Alex. He’s gradually got worse and worse since he took over, so it’s time to go.

They should have looked at other people at the time. He’s proved he wasn’t good enough - 12 years at Everton with no trophies - not the ideal man for United. I feels sorry for the man himself but he’s not good enough for the job so he’s got to go.

You hear the rumours about the Bayern manager, Atletico Madrid - who would want to come here who knows? I just hope we get a big name. It should have been José Mourinho last year, that was the big name we missed out on. He’s back at Chelsea now, he’s probably happy so we’ll miss out on him.

“It will be a top European manger I’d say. I’d like to see Giggs in the job until the end of the season.

“We need to get the team settled to the end of the sseason and then make some big decisions.”

Ideal replacement: Ryan Giggs, then José Mourinho (Chelsea)

Jo Wood, 41, from Sale, “I think he’s a nice enough man but I don’t think he understands the club or the way we play. My friend has an Everton season ticket and he says his mentality there was ‘go out and try not to lose and see if you can win’ and we’re not a club that does that. We’re a club that goes out and expects and demands to win every game and it appeared we were playing defeated football rather than attacking football with pride which we played for so many years. The fit didn’t work and it appears he has lost the dressing room too, and you’ve got a really big problems once you’ve lost the players you’ve gone. I don’t think as a club we have any choice but to remove him. I wish him well but he’s just not the man for United.

I think we made a huge mistake not giving it Mourinho - I don’t know now who should replace him but I think we should get Moyes out, Get Gigs in for a few games, settle it down and then see what happens.”

Dad of two John Loran, 31, from Stretford, said: “He needs to be given more time to make success out of things - it doesn’t make sense to get rid of him so soon. I think if we give him at least another season, time will tell whether he can tun it around or not.

“Alex Ferguson was here over 26 years and sustained great success in that time. You can’t automatically expect someone to retire and someone new to come in having spent 10 years plus in the premier league with Everton, and expect automatic success. With a club of this size it is going to take time. I think we’ve given David Moyes a six year contract and united were always aware it was going to take time. I think given time he can turn this around.”

Andrew Rauco, 14, from Florida, said: “I think we should give Moyes at least one more year and see how that goes. I think it’s half him and half the players that is the problem. He’s a new manager so it’s hard for him with the players not playing to their full potential. I think the club is like ‘we’re losing, we should just kick him out, most clubs do that all over the world.”

Ideal Replacement: Don’t replace him, give him time.

Patrick Feeney, 19, from Ireland, said: “I think Daid Moyes should be given more time with Man United. It took time with Ferguson it will take time with Moyes, I think players like Cleverley and Smalling need to improve their performance in the field. I think he got his matches wrong against Everton on Saturday, he needs to work more with his players like Alex did and hopefullly players will start performing for him and it will all click together.”

Ideal replacement: Roberto Martinez

Jimmy Waldron, 54, factory workers, from Urmston, said: “I think they should give him another 12 months although it is looking like he’s going to be sacked. It’s been a big transition period and he’s had a tough time taking over from the master. I think he’s had a hard time with the players - they’ve had a respite from the hairdryer treatment and thought ‘we can have an easy time now’. If he had 12 months I think he could make a good side and do a good job.
